Answer:
y = √55
Step-by-step explanation:
All the triangles are similar, so the ratio of short side to hypotenuse is the same for all:
5/y = y/(5+6)
y^2 = 55
y = √55
_____
<em>Comment on the geometry</em>
There are three "geometric mean" relationships that apply to this geometry.
- the altitude BD is the geometric mean of BC and BA (√30)
- the long side of the large triangle is the geometric mean of the longer segment of the hypotenuse and the whole hypotenuse (x = √66)
- the short side of the large triangle is the geometric mean of the shorter segment of the hypotenuse and the whole hypotenuse (y = √55)
If you were aware of the last of these relationships, you could write down the answer without any "work."
y = √(5(5 +6)) = √55
__
The geometric mean is the n-th root of the product of n numbers. When there are 2 numbers, it is the square root of their product.
